Tens of thousands of anti-government protesters marched Saturday in the Hungarian capital of Budapest, demanding a new election and a new national electoral system in the biggest opposition rally in years.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban was re-elected for a fourth term last week. His right-wing populist Fidesz party won a supermajority in the national assembly, with preliminary results showing that Fidesz and tiny ally the Christian Democratic party won 134 seats in the 199-seat legislature.

They had elections. Orban and his party won 2/3 of the vote.

But Soros is not happy, so he pays to get people out to protest the free and fair election.

Uh huh. “We need to get rid of the Electoral College because Hillary won the popular vote!” We’ve been down this road before.

WOW I am surprised. The left wing will not accept that they lost.

SARC

So typical form here, to Brexit to there that the left wing can;t accept that they are not a majority and that their views are too radical for normal people.
Now how much did Soros pay towards this too?

It worked in Kiev against a legally elected gov. The excuse for other govs to pile on was "government troops" that fired on "grassroots protestors". Meanwhile, Victoria Nuland was handing out snacks and enabling protestors against the government.

How quickly we forget.

Re: But Soros is not happy

Exactly.

Thanks for posting.

By the way, Judicial Watch, which is a Conservative watch dog group, has pending lawsuits against the State Department for Soros related documents.

According to JW, the Obama Administration gave millions of dollars to several Soros funded political groups in the Balkans and in Latin America.

The State Department, which has been under Trump Administration control for 15 months, still refuses to release the relevant documents.
